Ben Durand

Ben Durand is a rising country artist based in the Greater Boston area, known for his ability to connect with fans through an everyman perspective. A gifted songwriter, Durand has spent time collaborating with artists across the country and frequently travels back and forth from Boston to Nashville.

As a live performer, Ben has already shared the stage with national acts including Lee Brice, Sam Grow, and Runaway June, earning a reputation for engaging, high-energy shows and genuine crowd connection.

A lifelong performer and singer, Ben’s passion for music began at a young age singing in school musicals and pursuing vocal performance through college long before he picked up an instrument. Athletics also played a major role in his early life. Durand walked onto the Auburn University football team who competed in the 2013 national championship game at the Rose Bowl.

In late 2025, Ben broke out with his single “Hey Lady,” which quickly found placement on major country Spotify playlists surpassing 200K streams, marking a significant milestone in his early career. This was followed up and surpassed by his next release, Northern Knockout, which has exceeded 250k streams.  With additional singles and an EP slated for release, 2026 is shaping up to be a breakout year for Ben Durand — a name many believe is poised to become the biggest country artist to emerge from New England in years.
